I got back into it tonight. Problem found and resolved! Sometimes it helps to take a break and think things over. It wasn't what I originally thought, in fact, I wasted a LOT of time chasing - nothing. The culprit? Open electrolytic cap! Remember, I recapped it about 5 years ago? Well, one of the new caps was dead. I clipped a sub on and things came up, so I replaced and it came back to life. I wouldn't have dreamed that one of my new caps would have failed already - but it did! Soooo - learn from my pain, just because caps are new(er), doesn't mean they are good.
C62 was the main filter on the - supply.
The left black capacitor in the board with the tuners over it.
Soldered in a replacement and it came to life.
This cap is DEAD!
I still had a bag with some left - 10uf 450v. I believe came from AES. Has the big "U" on it. I tested a few others and they were marginal, not giving a good solid reading. Tossed them in the trash.
The schemo showing the horizontal driver using the ICs. This is kinda hard to find, so if you need a copy, PM me and I can send or post.

If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything"
